Still Standing
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
First kiss you ever had
When our lips met together
I knew that was that
I'm still standing
Keeping you dancing yeah,
You know you want it
Making the party blow
The way you like it
Do you want to hear me sing pop
'cause I don't think I want to stop
And I love it when my beats drop
Yeah it makes me feel hot
Guess whose back on top
I'll happily surrender
To your desire
A touch so warm and tender
Is setting me on fire
I'm still standing
Keeping you dancing yeah,
You know you want it
I'm still going
Making the party blow
The way you like it
Do you want to hear me sing pop
'cause I don't think I want to stop
And I love it when my beats drop
Yeah it makes me feel hot
Guess whose back on top
(funking to this sound
We're gonna get down)
Pop, stop, drop, hot
(do you want to hear me sing) pop
('cause I don't think I wanna)stop
(and I love it when my beats) drop
(yeah it makes me feel) hot
Guess whose back on top
Do you want to hear me sing pop
'cause I don't think I want to stop
And I love it when my beats drop
Yeah it makes me feel hot
Guess whose back on top

Her declaration that she is "still standing" implies that she has faced difficulties and emerged victorious.
The chorus of the song emphasizes Kylie's ability to keep the listener moving and dancing. She is still going, making the party blow "the way you like it."

This is directly followed by her statement that she doesn't want to stop, conveying a sense of passion and energy that drives her forward.
The bridge of the song sees Kylie surrendering to her desire and feeling the warmth and tenderness of a touch. It is a moment of vulnerability that allows her to connect with her listeners on an emotional level. Ultimately, the song is a celebration of resilience and determination. It is a powerful statement of self-confidence and a reminder that no matter what challenges we face, we have the strength to overcome them and keep moving forward.

Maybe a bit bloated, but I love every one of these songs and is always the case, a LOT of bsides are better than the album tracks. I feel on the original tracklisting the last few songs kinda sucked the life out of the album. Also debating on where to put Soul On Fire.....
@lkumiksm
This was ahead of its time, no doubt about it. Body language is an eclectic album really.
@dioncampbell2393
It definitely has some sexy moments, and this is one of them. I often play this one along with Dancefloor Darling from Disco, and Drunk from Impossible Princess....she really has had a lot of excellent non-single tracks. What about the original Love at First Sight? What about Just Wanna Love You, which wasn't even on an album, it was just a B-side. Where Has the Love Gone from Kylie Minogue, Butterfly from Light Years.....
